GI Show 148: God of War: Ascension, StarCraft: Heart of the Swarm

This week, we break down the latest in the epic saga of Kratos, and talk about the long-awaited expansion to StarCraft II.

In the first segment, host Matt Helgeson is joined by Joe Juba, Dan Ryckert, and Andy Reiner to talk about Sony's God of War: Ascension. It's likely the last God of War game of this console generation, and Joe (who reviewed the game) has mixed feelings about the game's storytelling and some of the changes that were implemented to the gameplay.

Next up, Matt Miller, Ben Reeves, and Ben Hanson stop by to talk about StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm, the expansion pack that has been more than two years in the making. However, as with most Blizzard games, the wait was worth it. Look for Miller's review in the days to come, but until then you can listen to us analyze the game.
